Comment from Sange


I love owls too! I get to see Burrowing owls often and they are 9 inches tall but have the coolest yellow and black eyes.
Superb feather details and great color on those hypnotizing eyes Suzanne.
Fine painting🙌👍

COOL,Suzanne!
I like owls for a number of reasons,not the least of which is their ancient association with Occult matters,and I'm really enjoying your fine close up portrait of this one!
It's very nicely done and it's a whole lot of fun to view! :)

This is simply amazing! The eyes and the reflections really draw the viewer into the painting. You should be very proud of this work.

Let me just add my praise to the long list you've already received. My first thought was, "The Eyes have it!" I also like the symmetry of the whole picture with the eyebrows(?) leading up to the top edge and the beak pointing down. Super job. Cheers, James

It is a joy to review this one. Before opening it up I thought it was a photograph. Quite wonderful actually. I always judge wildlife photos by the focus and intensity of the eyes. Bingo! You grabbed my attention and nailed it! Thanks!

Comment from Life is but a dream.


Did I mention in the last review something about the eyes being the windows of the soul?

This is a very arresting piece of art, perfectly cropped, up close and personal with inclusion of that killer beak.

The details of feathers again show us a confident artist who "knows her onions". You've included a vast tonal range from black to white...and splashed some warmth into the feathers as well. The colour of eyes against the monochromatic feathering is startling and catches us and gives us pause as we peer and I'm trying to see what it is he sees and I can see trees...hes' in a forest!

This is very warm, strong and fine piece to get tangled up in to review!

Full frame presentation of the owls eyes is just extraordinary. Excellent detail work, and your textures are truly extraordinary. Wish I had a six to give you. This is just outstanding work
